MY DIARY DIGITAL DATA ENTRY 113 OF 145

Tonight I met up with my new friend Alice at the church charity food van at the city's industrial market warehouse carpark - and after we got our nightly meal to survive on from the church charity food van - Alice brought all her belongings in garbage bags and a backpack back here to the cemetery with me - And after I showed her my catacomb chamber room - then as is always necessary for me - we then began to talk about our lives - And so I told an obviously shocked Alice the basic story of my life including obviously the real-life horrors that I have experienced and my own wrongful behaviour from the past - and after that Alice was obviously showing signs of being unsettled and uncomfortable in my presence - and so I promised Alice that I would never harm her - And I am not sure if this made Alice feel anymore comfortable - so I told her that she could sleep in the upstairs part of this grave memorial while I slept sealed in my catacomb chamber room downstairs - and she could also sleep with my hunting dagger knife which I keep with me always here at the cemetery for my own personal protection - and also as soon as we can we will find her own catacomb chamber room for her to sleep and live in now that she is homeless - And then Alice told me her story including her own sordid past - for Alice grew up in a broken home with a single parent and her slightly younger brother - and where both her and her brother were not abused but they were both ignored and not shown any attention or love growing up from parental figures - and then Alice dropped out of school and moved out of home at the age of sixteen years old in order to be an artist - and she moved into the then bohemian inner-city suburb of Fitzroy and worked three nights a week in a casual nightshift position in an independent bohemian cafe' in Fitzroy whilst she worked on her artwork and tried to be successful with her artwork - until the inner-city bohemian suburb of Fitzroy went through a process of gentrification as the university institutions went through a massive recruitment phase to make money - and so Fitzroy was overtaken by boring, bourgeois university students and the bohemian crowd had to move out and the bohemian cafe's - including the bohemian cafe' where Alice worked - had to close down because of expensive rental prices as the gentrification of Fitzroy took place for the expensive but boring, bourgeois, university student culture - And then after that Alice's life fell apart - because first she had to go onto unemployment benefits for three months and move out of her once beloved inner-city suburb of Fitzroy and into cheaper residential accommodation - which was in a cheap run-down rooming house in the red-light district of the Melbourne inner-city suburb of St Kilda - and then after being on unemployment benefits for three months - Alice was placed by one of the privatised job search agencies that work for the government into one of the inner-city, conservative corporate cafe chains in the central business district of Melbourne where she had to wear an intentionally personality and individuality denying uniform - and where no individuality or personality is allowed to be shown in the workplace - and where she had to serve all customers with that superficial, contrived, fake happiness that so many conservative corporations wrongfully want people to behave like in the workplace - (and in every aspect of people's lives if those conservative corporations also wrongfully had complete control of the world) - And so Alice worked in the strict and miserable environment of that conservative corporate cafe chain on the evening shift performing customer service - and after a year in that job Alice had begun to get ever increasing anxiety due to the rigid, personality and individuality denying environment of that conservative, corporate cafe chain - and also because of all the psychological abuse - (which is also obviously a form of physical abuse) - from all the conservative, corporate customers that she had to serve in her job - and so Alice's anxiety increased and manifested in extreme nervousness and stomach pains and problems that got worse and worse - until one evening when she had finished her shift and had gotten off the tram at St Kilda and was walking back to her red-light district rundown rooming house room - a pimp and drug dealer for some of the street prostitutes in the red-light district region where she lived offered to sell her heroin - and before this Alice had only ever done recreational party drugs back in her early days of living in Fitzroy as the main drug Alice had used back then was the drug ecstasy - which like many people she eventually stopped taking because the come-downs after she used the drug ecstasy got worse and worse and gave her an increased feeling of anxiety - and so it had been a couple of years since Alice had used drugs and she had no desire to do so - and heroin was the last drug that she thought she would try because of its reputation - and because she did not want to increase her already high level of anxiety and she is afraid of needles she told that street drug dealer no thanks to his offer of heroin - and when he asked her why Alice told him the abovementioned reasons as he walked down the street beside her - and so the street dealer told her that she did not have to inject the heroin as she could smoke it and that it would also stop her anxiety - especially her nervousness and stomach pains and problems - and then the street dealer offered Alice a free heroin smoking hit - and looking at Alice's conservative corporate cafe chain uniform - told Alice that it would also block out all the nasty vibes of anyone who was causing her anxiety - and so Alice said okay what the hell - and ducked into the start of a side street alleyway with the dealer - and he put a small rock of heroin onto some aluminum foil and lit it for her as Alice inhaled the heroin - and then that was it Alice was hooked on heroin as it immediately took away all her anxiety and her stomach problems and pains - and so Alice bought a small deal of heroin from him and took it home with her - and then each evening before she went to work Alice would smoke some of the heroin which stopped her anxiety and took away all the anxiety connected physical nervousness and stomach pains and problems that were from her horrible job - and which the heroin also blocked out the nasty vibes of all the abusive conservative corporate bastards and bitches who she had to serve in her customer service job in the conservative, corporate cafe when those conservative corporate customers would continually abuse her as she served them - and then each evening after work as she walked home in the suburb of St Kilda - Alice would buy an increasingly larger deal of heroin from the street pimp and dealer as her tolerance to the heroin naturally increased and she required more and more of the drug to both get the same effects from the heroin and also to stop the inevitable mental cravings and horrible physical pain that happens during heroin addiction on a consistent daily basis - and which also require a heroin addict to either keep using more heroin or go through the necessary three days of very horrible mental cravings and extreme physical pain to withdraw off the drug - and whether a person smokes or injects the drug - the horrible withdrawal period is the same - and it is also extremely difficult for anyone to get through that withdrawal period and off their addiction to heroin if and when they want or have to do so - and so that is how Alice unfortunately became addicted to the life-numbing and life-destroying drug heroin - and it was not long before Alice's wages from her conservative corporate cafe job could no longer support her living costs combined with her heroin addiction - and so Alice then living in the red-light district region of street prostitution in the inner-city suburb of St Kilda in Melbourne - and being an attractive young blonde girl who was hooked badly on heroin by that stage and whose drug dealer was also a street pimp for many of the street prostitutes of that red-light district of street prostitution in St Kilda - then in the midst of heroin addiction and with the constant knowledge and personal experience that goes with the fear of that horrible feeling of painful heroin withdrawal - Alice then also became a street prostitute - and so after her evening shift in the conservative corporate cafe each evening where she would go to her job in her counter sales position stoned on heroin to block out all the abusive and horrible vibes of the conservative, corporate cafe customers - after her shift finished there in the late evening - Alice would then go back to the red-light district streets of St Kilda where she lived and prostitute her body for money and bring back as many men as she could each night to have sex with in her run-down rooming house room in order to support her ever increasing heroin addiction - and this went on for five years until Alice had finally had enough of her heroin habit and what it had done to her life - because now Alice's tolerance to heroin was extremely high - and she had not done any artwork since becoming a heroin addict - because in the small amount of time that she was not working - she was too apathetic from being stoned on smack to do any artwork - and so after five years of being a slave to smack and sex to support her smack habit - Alice finally sought medical help to try get through the difficult process of heroin withdrawal - and after many doctors and many attempts - Alice was fortunate enough to finally find an extremely good doctor who both knew how to get her through the painful process of heroin withdrawal - and also pinpoint exactly why Alice initially became a heroin addict in the first place - which like most heroin addicts is because of anxiety - because heroin - despite the fact that it ruins your life and can kill you and has killed a lot of people - heroin however also stops the horrible overwhelming feelings of anxiety - and for anyone who has experienced anxiety - especially on-going anxiety - they would know how anxiety can also both limit and destroy your life - And so with the help of that good doctor and strong painkillers and diazepam - the doctor helped Alice to finally quit her heroin addiction - and so now Alice uses diazepam on a daily basis ever since then to help treat her anxiety and to stop her falling back into heroin addiction.
